Stonehenge Golf Club

Stonehenge Golf Club sits in Winona Lake, Indiana, a small town in Kosciusko County known for its chain of glacial lakes and its history as a religious conference center. The course was designed by Ron Garl, a Florida-based architect who worked extensively throughout the southeastern and midwestern United States from the 1970s onward. Garl's designs typically emphasize strategic bunkering, water features, and playability for a range of skill levels, often incorporating the natural terrain and water elements available on a site. The northern Indiana landscape around Winona Lake features relatively gentle terrain shaped by glacial activity, with mature hardwoods and the presence of several interconnected lakes. Courses in this region often route around wetlands, ponds, and stands of trees, and Stonehenge likely reflects this character. Garl's work in the Midwest tends to balance challenge with accessibility, using water hazards and bunker placement to define playing corridors and create risk-reward decisions without requiring excessive length or severe topography. Stonehenge serves as a private club facility for the Winona Lake area, providing a home course for local members in a region where golf is a seasonal pursuit. The club offers a traditional country club experience in a small-town Indiana setting, where the course is a centerpiece of community and recreational life during the warmer months.
